Yes, about focusing on what is important.
When you think you can handle the annoying people or whatever, do go to the senior center. Being around other people can help us stay connected and gets us out of ourselves for the time that we are there.
(It helps me to do that even if it wears me out because I am an introvert.)
If you are worried about calories, eat at the center, and then for the rest of the day eat apples and eggs. That could be a good food plan for you.
Then, when you need to, modify the plan again.
Do what you can to focus on good things.
I have been distracting myself on youtube and other social media sites by reading the comments. (Sounds goofy perhaps.)
